Quantum tunneling in a many-body system is much more non-trivial than that in a one-body system. The most characteristic phenomenon is the mixed tunneling, which has been studied in many fields for decades. For instance, let us consider a…

We discuss the implementation of quantum logic in a system of strongly interacting particles. The implementation is qubitless since ``logical qubits'' don't correspond to any physical two-state subsystems. As an illustration, we present the…

Feynman's path integral approach is to sum over all possible spatio-temporal paths to reproduce the quantum wave function and the corresponding time evolution, which has enormous potential to reveal quantum processes in classical view.…

We give a path integral construction of the quantum mechanical partition function for gauged finite groups. Our construction gives the quantization of a system of $d$, $N\times N$ matrices invariant under the adjoint action of the symmetric…
